Meet Bethany!
Bethany is truly the sweetest soul you’ll ever meet, and she is more than ready to find the forever home she has been waiting for. Once a devoted mama, she is now stepping into a new chapter as a full-time cuddle bug and loyal companion. Bethany is around four years old and weighs about 45 pounds, making her the perfect medium size. She has an adorable low-rider build with a short, sturdy frame that only adds to her charm. While we cannot confirm her breed without a DNA test, we suspect she may be a bulldog and bully breed mix. Bethany was found as a stray in early April, and while we do not know much about her past, we do know that she is incredibly affectionate and people-oriented. She greets everyone like a long-lost best friend and loves to lean into full-body hugs, wiggling from nose to tail in the most endearing way. She has a constant, happy wag and a personality that naturally brings joy to everyone around her. As a former mama, she does have a bit of a confident, “in charge” personality, but overall gets along with everyone.
Ideal Home
Bethany would do best in a home that offers structure, consistency, and plenty of love. Frequent potty breaks, daily exercise, and mental enrichment will help her adjust and thrive. A fenced yard would be ideal, but apartments or condos will be considered on a case-by-case basis if her exercise needs can be met. While her exposure to children is limited, we believe she could do well in a home with kids given slow and respectful introductions.
Ongoing Health
Bethany is heartworm positive, which is a common and treatable condition that is not contagious. She has begun the shelter’s slow-kill protocol. We strongly encourage adopters to research both slow- and fast-kill treatment options and to speak with their veterinarian about the best path forward. Bethany is spayed, microchipped, up to date on vaccinations, dewormed, and on monthly preventatives.
Training & Support
Bethany will need guidance as she transitions into a home environment, including support with routine and basic training, but she is eager to learn and form a strong bond with her person. As with any rescue dog, we always recommend slow and monitored introductions in a home setting.
